Re: [Cooker] Sound problem on SiS 730 with mdk 9 b2
could you try snd-intel8x0 instead of i810_audio (don't forget to install alsa-utils, libalsa2, libalsa2-data, to run the alsa service and to set the sound volume level since alsa is muted by default) I will try to install alsa.

Instead of bitching, can you please explain why this isn't a sensible policy, and explain the actual problem you're having in a useful and non-confrontational manner? It would be far more productive. That is a sensible policy. Someone suggested however that they did OSS-ALSA on the es1371, when there is *nothing wrong* with OSS on that card. Also, for cards (like SBLive) where OSS works (just maybe isn't the greatest) the option should still be presented up front (expert mode only) in DrakX to use OSS, rather than just surprising people with it. __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [Cooker] sound issues (mor)
The problem is Cooker is about to become the release version. Yes, after at least one more beta and several rc's. Mandrake hasn't said that (or when) they are releasing 9.0. I'm sure if you looked at another OS while it was still in development between versions you'd find it was just as full of bugs. Thats why it's called development. If 9.0 is released and still has all these probs, trust me, I'll be one of the first in line to bitch, but it's not, this is cooker :) Ryan

Re: [Cooker] Sound card problem with mandrake-8.2
This problem is solved with 'modprob'ing sound. Thanks to Pierre Fortin for suggesting that. I have the same problem with another machine as i mentioned in the previous mail. This is a Duron system with onboard SiS controller. I get trident driver while configuring. Everything plays well( xmms, realplayer, alsaplay etc. ) but no sound. I tried removing alsa and loading trident driver alone. But it didn't help. When I recompile the kernel along with trident driver as part of kernel (instead of module), i get sound properly. So, I'm expecting some kind of conflict with modules. Is it alsa? Please find attached log files for more information.

[Cooker] sound card problems, audioexcel 515M
Hi all, I'm using beta4, and I just got a sound card to go in my newly assembly computer. I ended up buying a cheap one, but I figured it'd be ok since the box said linux supported. It's an audio excel av515m, using the c-media 8738 6-ch chipset. It came with a cmpci driver, but that's also part of the kernel, looks like. But anyway, I also saw that it is supported by alsa using the snd-card-cmipci driver. Trouble is, I can't get anything to work. Something's screwy with devfs. I've got nothing in /dev/sound. There's no /dev/snd or /dev/asound, which I thought would be there for alsa. There's no /dev/dsp or /dev/mixer which are old oss holdouts, I believe. DrakConf doesn't recognize that I have a sound card. It throws up four Via Technologies Unknown lines under Other Devices in the hardware section, along with another Unknown. It says to send the /proc/bus/* files to [EMAIL PROTECTED] which I can do, but I wanted to check with the cooker list first. In the /proc/bus/pci directory, I have a devices file, and two directories, 00, and 01. The only other pci device I have is a netword card which is correctly identified. The 01 directory is nearly empty with only a 00.0 file. The 00 directory has several. Anyone have any ideas/suggestions? Should I be manually modifying the /modules.conf file? Oh, another thing, why does harddrake have an nVidia Corporation entry under Other Devices? I have a GeForce3 Ti-200, and the only thing listed under Videocards is generic VGA.

Well, I was able to get around the problems I was having in beta{2,3}
with sound on my VAIO laptops (ymfpci kernel module) by hacking
modules.conf, but I am having *NO* luck in doing so in beta4!
No matter what kernel I boot into, devfs or not, I can't get any sound.
The only adjustment aumix has is for Mic. Not good. The kernel
module's loaded (using the default method as well as the work-around I
had for the earlier beta releases) and '/etc/init.d/{alsa,sound} status'
both say that sound's loaded.
In my case, with the stock 2.4.18-2mdk kernel, there _is_
/dev/{dsp,mixer}, but no /dev/sound or /dev/asound (if that matters).
Quite frustrating.

When I do an /etc/init.d/{sound,alsa} status, they both say Sound
loaded and I can see the appropriate kernel modules are, indeed,
loaded. I simply can't find out why there's no sound. Everything

have you enabled alsa sound services ?
When I do an /etc/init.d/{sound,alsa} status, they both say Sound
loaded and I can see the appropriate kernel modules are, indeed,
loaded. I simply can't find out why there's no sound. Everything
looks as if it should work fine.

Well, after booting into a custom 2.4.17 kernel I built from source and
hacking the /etc/modules.conf, I've gotten it to work!
I also had to disable devfs as when enabled, there wasn't any /dev/mixer
which was apparently causing some problems.
So here's what my new /etc/modules.conf looks like:
alias snd-card-ymfpci ymfpci
alias sound-slot-0 ymfpci
I'll try booting back into the stock kernel later and I'll send you the
requested output.

Creating computer software is always a demanding and painstaking
process -- an exercise in logic, clear expression, and almost fanatical
attention to detail. It requires intelligence, dedication, and an
enormous amount of hard work. But, a certain amount of unpredictable
and often unrepeatable inspiration is what usually makes the difference
between adequacy and excellence.

[Cooker] Sound problems in 8.2betas
I've noticed this on beta2 and now on beta3, but I just can't get sound to work at all on the laptops on which I have them installed. It worked fine in 8.0 and 8.1 and I can't tell exactly _why_ there's no sound (the kernel module's loaded, the volume and everything is up), but there's just nothing there. It thinks it's playing, but there's just no love. This is using xmms playing mp3s. I haven't tried playing an audio cd, but I don't know if it'd make a difference. -Charlie -- GPG Key fingerprint = 4F36 EC4F 2F2C 5F59 9690 09E5 4C0F 9DB0 8623 53CE The chief danger in life is that you may take too many precautions. -- Alfred Adler

no error message in /var/log/message. And yes I have unmuted everything.

[Cooker] Sound with Compaq Presario 700CA laptop
Hello, I installed Cooker (Mandrake 8.1 + upgrade to cooker) on my new Compaq Presario 700CA laptop and the sound does not work. This laptop is based on the integrated chipset KN133 (AMD Duron). The sound card is detected and correctly configured by hardDrake (model VT82C686 [Apollo Super AC97/Audio] with kernel module via82cxxx_audio). But I can't get any sound with this laptop. This is probably due to the two sound buttons on the laptop (a + and - to increase/decrease the volume). I guess that something else has to be activated but what? Has anyone seen something similar? Thanks. Denis ___ Denis Pelletier Étudiant au doctorat sciences économiques, Université de Montréal

You've checked that, correct? You might also want to load the kernel docs package. As I recall there is some info on the sound modules in there somewhere.

[Cooker] Sound problems in current KDE
Hello, some days ago I wrote that I am having problems with sound in KDE which would not work. I just figured out why it's not working anymore. I had activated Full Duplex operation in the sound server setup, and somehow it doesn't seem to work anymore. I turned it off and am now having sound again. So there seems to be something wrong with either the arts package, or the kde sound modules because it used to work up until last week. If I'm not mistaken I also had the choice between OSS and ALSA in the KDE sound control panel, now there's only OSS. Maybe I'm wrong though and ALSA was never a choice (can someone confirm this, pls?) Rgds, Rainer

pam_console_apply extension RE: [Cooker] Sound devices perms
By the way, why do we have now to be in audio group to play sound ?? (this is a real question) before devfs I think the permissions were set when logging in (see /etc/security/console.perms). I don't know why this was changed, maybe it just needs to be fixed? They still are. The only problem is when module is loaded *after* you have logged in. In this case sound devices get 660 as per devfsd.conf. I believe, pam_console_apply should be extended to allow device name as argument and used in devfsd.conf, like REGISTER .* EXECUTE /sbin/pam_console_apply $devpath We do not need to do anything on unregistered. What I do *not* like, is that this triggers CHANGE action additionally. But that's another problem ... -andrej
RE: pam_console_apply extension RE: [Cooker] Sound devices perms
REGISTER .* EXECUTE /sbin/pam_console_apply $devpath used to be there. Too slow. No. What was there was REGISTER .* EXECUTE /sbin/pam_console_apply That runs pam_console_applies for *all* devices every time. I suggest extending pam_console_apply to run for a single specific file. It should not be slower than loading module :-) We do not need to do anything on unregistered. What I do *not* like, is that this triggers CHANGE action additionally. But that's another problem ... IMO it's a bug. I've not had a look yet.

Re: [Cooker] Sound settings w/ 8.1 beta 3
Jason Dyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: For some reason all of the sound (volume) settings of my 8.1b3 install (clean install) were _zero_... I had just about convinced myself that it wasn't recognizing my AC97 compatible chipset (VIA 8233), when it occurred to me to check the mixer settings. Sure enough, they were all (except for PCM?) set to zero... I changed the sliders to some reasonable values, and it's all good... (actually, playback quality seems better than 8.0) alsa drivers have always done this. i suggest adding: above snd-card-cs461x snd-pcm-oss pre-remove snd-card-cs461x modprobe -r snd-pcm-oss pre-remove snd-pcm-oss /usr/bin/aumix -f /etc/.aumixrc -S /dev/null 21 post-install snd-pcm-oss /usr/bin/aumix -f /etc/.aumixrc -L /dev/null 21 (the pre-remove snd-card-cs461x should not be needed, but it is. modprobe -r snd-card-cs461x causes snd-pcm-oss to be removed (using the above command), but modprobe -r doesn't.

No! you have to run msec to add the correct users to the group audio.
